#1 ...using machetes to hack off the hands and feet of thousands of civilians...took a plastic bag ablaze with fire and put it on my body...which was burnt on the shoulder...The Kamajors laid him on the ground and cut off his head...

Anyone in the media confused about what real torture is anymore? Do you need to see some photos so you get the difference between humiliation and torture? Oh, but then you folks seem to like that kind of coliseum entertainment...

Unlike the tribunals for Rwanda and the former Yugoslavia, the court is based in the country where excesses occurred, indicts fewer people and draws on local and international law. (Bold my emphasis)

Does this paragraph sound worrying to anyone else?
